First 70.3 next month... vineman
Quote | Reply
Hey guys,

I normally do olmypic distance and pack all my drinks with me on the ride segment... Now doing first 70.3 next month, how does the hydration work? I ride a shiv and will fill up the bladder and have one bottle holder behind my seat. The bottles I pick up on the ride course, will they have squeeze tops so I can refill my shiv bladder or are they just regular bottles?

Sports bottles with squeeze tops. Both gatorade and water. Pretty easy to grab and fill.

Yep. You should be able to squirt your hand-ups into the bladder or stash them behind you.

I have an aero bottle w/ calories on the down-tube and a BTA bottle for hand-ups. It was HOT at Wildflower (will be at Vineman too) and regretted not having another standard bottle cage when I got a bottle that was about 1/3 full.

Shouldn't be as much as an issue for you, as you can refill the bladder. See you out there!
